Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Hats Drive with media and paj thanks to Chimis
weir House The Real House of Fragrances. Hi, everyone, welcome
to the podcast. Or you've got sick hubby tonight, su.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
He's always sick.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I feel like a lot of people we've got extra
stuck after COVID. I just think immune systems have been
a bit not since I don't know, just the last
few year, weird years. You know.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
It's a fine balancing act as a husband between like
being hearing and then being like just killing over it again.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Do you cuddle a lot when he's sick or is
there like no.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Touching he hates well, I mean he hates cuddling at
the best of times, so a little when he's sick,
leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Do you?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Will you make him next dinner tonight, like a little
chicken soup or something I've prepped.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I've prepped dinner, and I've said to him, you are
free to cook. Like all he's going to do is
just put the meat on and cook it and everything
us good to go. So I've said you can do that,
but if you don't fill up to it, I will
be home and I can cook it for you. When
I'm home. That's nice. Does he get like man flu?
Is he?
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Honestly, I think I've told you this before.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's like you shoe shick and he thinks I put
it on when I'm sick. But when he's like when
he gets the same bug as me, he's like, no, no,
you didn't have the same one as me.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
It was different. This is so much worse.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
And I'm like, no, although he's actually been more resilient lately,
and I think that's because I always like force feed
him all these good vitamins and stuff that he ne histam.
So he's like he's quite good now, Ryan.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Ryan feels very sorry for himself and he's yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Do you get that, like, is the man blow an
actual thing? Or do you think some guys who are
like maybe this is that, who are usually like much
more masculine.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
This is the chance for your guard to come down.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I reckon it's there, whereas.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You don't need to because you're always you're it.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Is always yeah exactly, So it just is so like
neutral for me.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, like, yeah, I'm sick, well what about it?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
But yeah, no, I might take take him home a
little treat tonight.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
The thing is they always want to treat like an
ice cream or something like that.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
There's the worst thing you've got a cold.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Because it's like not good on the MUK thing though,
where it's like sometimes you just don't just want to
be cheap.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Absolutely, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Okay, So The Rokie you know how I told you
we resist for that is the TV show about corps
in l A.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
So last night I'm not getting really into it now
and we're watching this episode and it's just so dramatic
and then it ends and we're like, oh my god,
bring on, like the next episode. It stops at the
end of season three and This Sexual seven. This Sexual
seven seasons and total, but Netflix and New Zealand only
has three. And I was so like so deflated. Oh
(03:03):
my god, Actually what we.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Watched invastating really shit. I hate it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
And so now I'm like, I wonder if any other
platforms in New Zealand preview it, because it doesn't make
sense to me.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
That they've only got three seasons.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
If you google, We're to watch The Rookie In z
there's a website called flicks dot cot INZI that often.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Has Okay, so there's sex seasons. We've watched three. Okay,
We're sorry, guys. This is really reventing for anyone that's
not keen on the Rookie.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
You know that.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
And I'm going to tell you about what I'm watching
at the moment, which is The Real Housewives of Salt
Lake City, and it's so good. Can I just tell
you something that's happening. This is I'm well behind the april,
Like this is a few seasons old. One of the
housewives on this season gets arrested in the middle of
(03:58):
filming and and they're going on like a girl's trip
to go skiing, and they're like, it's like they're filming,
but it's not. The cameras are just kind of rolling,
but it's not really.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
She feels like real reality TV.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Real reality TV, because it's not even a part. You
would never have seen this part of the show normally
because it's so right boring. It's kind it's kind of
them just getting ready to get in the van to
drive to the mountain to go skiing. So it's like, yeah,
it's nothing really happening. And then all of a sudden,
one of their housewives is like gets a call and
(04:35):
she goes, I have to go. I have to go,
And she gets in a car and drives off and
then the like SWAT team arrive to without the rest
of the housewives are to arrest her. What it's wild?
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Oh my okay, TV and Z plus apparently TV and
Z plus.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Ever, well there you go? Support that be right?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Can they do both? So would that be why Netflix.
Speaker 1 (04:59):
Would cut off season three because TV in Z Okay,
it's definitely got season sex. But I didn't mean to
just do seasons six? Where can I TV and Z Plus?
Oh my god, BJ was so devastated. It was such
a dramatic into season three.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Plus has all six seasons. Peach, Oh shut up, it's.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Actually my day.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
I don't actually have TV in Z get it plus?
Is it free? A?
Speaker 2 (05:29):
It's free and there's such such good content on me.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Yeah, you always rave about it? So can I just
is it bitter? Just my TV is a little bit older? No,
it's not older. Like I can cast chrome casty thing?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Or should I just download the app on the on
the TV Okay, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Download it onto your phone and chrome cast it from
your phone.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
Oh my god, I sound like such a rocky literally
Oh my god, I'm so excited.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
I gotta tell BJ, I gotta tell BJ. Anyway, cool,
we're better.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Go and joy the podcast enjoyed the podcast coming up.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
After yesterday's revelation that I hadn't paid for petrol late
June and two rangy, someone else got in touch with
the show to reveal another incredibly embarrassing moment they witnessed
me though several years back at the petrol.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Station, mortifying. We also talked about when did you get
sucked in by the sales pitch? Yes, here, I've spent
fifty dollars on something stupid, stupid, and.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
We talk the worst jobs you've ever done. All of
that and more in the podcast enjoy by many.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
In the podcast's Deep into the Olympics page, we are
a few days after the opening ceremony, and boy, it's
just it's just event after event after event.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Yeah, what's your favorite?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Well, my husband is big into horse riding, so we've
been watching the horses. I love Olympics because I mean
I love gymnasts because it's just so impressive to watch.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah, we're watching to synchronize the other a synchronized swimming
the other day and it's just honestly, like the amount
of hours that must go into that training, it's so impressive.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Here's what I will say. The Olympics and this happens
I reckon every year is the time of the one
of those times where delusion is at its most high.
And what way my husband has decided that he reckons
he could get to lay twenty eight to compete in
(07:37):
the modern pen tathlon?
Speaker 3 (07:40):
What is that though?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
The modern pen tathlon?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's such an interesting event. It's such an interesting event.
It consists of fencing, freestyle, swimming, equestrians, show jumping, pistol shooting,
and cross country running.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
That is such a niche commination of sports.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
That's the thing. Ryan says, I'm never I'm not Lewis
clear Ber like, I'm never gonna swim two hundred meters
in the pool, and I'm and I wouldn't. I'm not
that delusional. And he's like, I'm not Nick Willis. So
I'm never gonna run I'm never gonna run one of
them really fast or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
But combine them all together altogether, you just need to
you just need to have a couple of good rounds.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
And because he's grown up on horses and has competed it,
has actually competed at quite a high level with horses. Yeah,
he says, the show jumping is always where they fall over,
because these are like runners or swimmers who then have
to just all of a sudden randomly learned to ride
a horse. Whereas He's like, well that.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I'm actually pretty strong in the arena.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
I'm pretty strong with that. So now I'm just going
to build up my fitness with swimming and running easy.
He needs to do that.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Still needs to be pretty good though, swimming and running right,
like you need to be just a bit higher than
your average blow Agreed.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Agreed, but he reckons four years is enough time to
get him to LA And I love the delusion, so
I was I wanted to open up the text machine
four four eight seven. Have you had this delusional moment
like have you been watching the Olympics thing thinking I
could do that?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
And if so, I should quit my job. Maybe I
could do it in four years.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
I want to know what sport you've got the delusion
with text us for four eight seven.
Speaker 6 (09:25):
Maddy and Median PJ the podcasts.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Have you ever been sucked into a sales pitch. That
is the question we're asking on the show this afternoon
after an incident that went down over the weekend for
one of our well our only well actual we got
two producers, but for our producer Sarah, who decided to
go to a certain food show and got sucked into
a little product.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Sarah joins us. Now, Hi, Sarah, Hi.
Speaker 7 (09:53):
I feel like I'm admitting, like I'm at therapy, like
admitting my products.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Hey chucked the shame away a judgment free zone.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
On the couch.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
What happened?
Speaker 7 (10:05):
Okay, So I was at a food show and obviously
I'm not someone to to kind of like buy like
homie products or anything like that. I'm there for the chocolate,
I'm there for the cought. I'm not gonna buy like
oil or anything.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
No, no, no, no, nothing you want. You're on the
verge of gen Z. You're definitely the youthful one of
the team.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Thank you. You're there for the free samples exactly.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
So I'm going around getting all the free samples and
then I stumble upon like a cloth stand, and you know,
I would just walk past, but he had a little
microphone attached to it.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Well, like a madonna micra to his ear.
Speaker 7 (10:41):
Yes, and he's like, come on over, girls, come on over,
And I was like all right. He proceeds to do
a full on five minute presentation.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, wiping up spills.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
He's spilling color on this little thing of carpet that
he has with this amazing cloth. And I was transfixed.
I was I on the prize. I was like, I
need this cloth.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Because this was my This is going to be my question.
Were you lured in because you felt bad for the
guy or were you genuinely interested to see the product?
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Well, the person I.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
Was with was like, oh, these are actually quite good cloths,
like these are really good. I used to use them,
and I was like, okay. Plus he I felt bad
because no one was at the stand and everyone was
at the donut.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Oh they's talking.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
A few of the only ones there with the pat
Jenny's got the microphone because you have to make eye
contact the whole tether.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
That's a tough stand to have as well. The one
needs to the donut.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
We did start crowd.
Speaker 7 (11:31):
I will say, we brought over tons of people. I
was getting the clap and go and go whoo wow.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
It really does soak up the cold. Now, oh my god.
Speaker 7 (11:39):
So then he finishes and he goes, now, normally this is,
you know, fifty dollars, but today only I will give
you four rows rolls plus another four rolls four fifty bucks.
And I whipped out my card before my partner could
say anything, and I shoved it and I swiped it
in the and I was so excited. I was like, yes,
two for the price of one. And then we walked
(12:01):
away and I was like, wait a minute, I.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Don't even need a cloth.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Cloth. You weren't even going to buy any food at
the food shows. At the food fifty dollars.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Someone stopped me and want to you really want to
get your money's worth and use that?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Do you guys want to to take home tonight?
Speaker 1 (12:23):
So I would actually love a cloth like I would,
I'd buy that, and I'd actually think that's a deal
with Can I just.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Say I'm disappointed in you here because I would expect
this kind of behavior from PJ. I expected more from you.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
I'll do it in next time.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Well, I've talked about this before. We got sucked into
the bow flicks. What do you call it? Like cross trainer?
My husband and I we were in the hotel on
like a Sunday morning, feeling really sorry for ourselves, and
the infomercial came on and I always said I would
never get sucked in one of those emotionals, and it
was like want to look better, want to feel good,
want to do and we're like yes, yes, yes, So
(13:00):
we called up and you like, honestly, for months on
end we were paying off this bloody exercisement.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
You told me recently that you were going to sell it.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Yeah, no, it's actually come back. I might say.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Many in the podcast, We want to know when you
got sucked in by the sales Patchy absolutely didn't need
the product.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
But you got sucked in. Producer Seria spent fifty dollars
to buy some cloths at her food showing that my
house is going to be clean, isn't it sure? But
was it already clean with the cloth.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
That you had?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Maybe to be fair, I've been looking out the class
because you told me the brand.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
I'm going to say the shem oy is that it.
She looks bloody girl. They meant to last for ages.
Speaker 7 (13:44):
And he was showing me how like when you ring
about they stay dry, no drips.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I look quite absorbed. I'll get me there.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
If I see your package come into the studio and
you have bloody spent fifty dollars in his cloth, I
swear to God.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Veronica's joining us on the fine Rocky.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
You actually got sucked into the same thing I did, Ronica,
what happened?
Speaker 8 (14:09):
Okay, So I did I take my daughter? I think
I might have taken my daughter. So we went to
the food show.
Speaker 9 (14:16):
It was at the food show.
Speaker 8 (14:18):
We went to the foot This is my daughter Mary.
We went to the food Show. We went there for
the for the crackers, for the salamis, for the delicious.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
The things you normally go to the food show for exactly.
Speaker 8 (14:33):
Anyway, we're walking along this young guy and he's got
this microphone on and he's guys, this German cough friend.
And he's like, look, I'm still in your whole glass
of coke and it's going to suck up a whole
glass of coke and look just so it was completely dry,
and and he's just like and I'm hypnotized, and just
(14:53):
watching him. I'm like, oh my god, I need this
for my yeah, just I just need this right now.
So anyway, okay, so today it's fifty bucks that I'm
going here. Last year's one that's different color for free,
so you get two for the press of one. Honestly,
I just I couldn't have taken out of a credit
card fast enough.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I need to know. I need to know, Veronica, was
it a good one? Was it worth it? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (15:20):
Well, I gave I gave one role to my mom.
And she actually has got one of those showers that's
a room, so she uses hers on the shower floor.
Speaker 9 (15:30):
She really helpful.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Okay, I use.
Speaker 8 (15:34):
It for the cats clean up.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Okay, all right, she's she's drunk. They this is not you.
You are not coming on this show to try you
if you bought the friend she's brought the franchise.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Now Tina's joining us. Tina did the herts. What did
you get sucked into by the sales?
Speaker 8 (15:54):
Pat?
Speaker 10 (15:55):
Well, I actually want to a photo shot for me
and myner, And so he went along and did the
photo shoot, and she printed it out and it was
only like a tiny, little regular size photo and she
convinced me to buy like a huge canvas a bust
(16:16):
together a black and white, a beautiful one for like
two and a half grand.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Grand.
Speaker 10 (16:25):
Yeah, and my partner was horrified, and he didn't talk
to me, went out and had cigarette for a while. Well,
I signed the paperwork and God all signed up. So yeah,
but I still have it and we love it, and yeah,
but it's a reminder every.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Time every time he looks at it, does your husband
go that bloody cost us thousand dollars because I love it?
Speaker 1 (16:53):
ANDJ and PJ the podcast you may have caught on
the show yes day me opening up about some mail
that I received over the weekend, which to this point
in my life, is the most humiliating thing I have
actually received.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Which is a massive call.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Huge call, because you are you were constantly embarrassing yourself.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I'm walking chaos, like literally, I think I noticed sitcom.
So basically, if you missed at it, turns out the
letter informed me that at the end of June, I
went to a sid And petrol station and I put
the petrol in my car and I drove off without paying.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
For said petrol.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
So I fixed that up, quickly entered all my details
in online.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
I was a little weary.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I thought, all, this is a scam, but then I
realized on the letter there was a blatant photo.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Of me inside my car at the gas station.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
So anyway, it was a learning always make sure you
pay for your petrol.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Now, we thought that that was one and done. You know,
we told the story, we had a laugh, and a
few people a message and say, oh my gosh, I've
done the same thing PJ. Blah blah blah blah blah.
We thought that was it for petrol station chat for
a while. No no, no, no, no, into someone in our
direct messages on Instagram to say, this is not the
(18:08):
first and only mortifying experience you've had at the petrol station.
I'd like to welcome to the show. Chris Hi, Chris good,
How are you good? I read your message and I
cackled last night. Do you want to tell the people
what happened when PJ visited the petrol station.
Speaker 11 (18:30):
So she come in to fill up, got out of
a car, Then she REases on the wrong side, so
she drives right round to the other side, gets back out,
the still realizes she's on the wrong side. I think
that happened about three times.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
So she just keep driving from Bowser to bowser, but
every time she did it, she'd end up on the
wrong side. Yep.
Speaker 11 (18:52):
Pretty much.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Did someone have to go and rescue her? In the end.
Speaker 11 (18:56):
Decided after watching the third time, I should probably go.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Chris, can I ask when this has happened? I want
to work out it for the lines with when I
was last pregnant, because I can surely blame it on that.
Speaker 11 (19:08):
No, that was three years, three or four years ago.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
No? Now, is this a usual occurrence, Chris? Or is
PJ a very unique individual in this in this instance.
Speaker 11 (19:24):
Normally after the second time?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah, yeah, you'd think so.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Literally, I have had a few moments where I do
remember that happening, and I don't know, it's just an
absolute mirror, and I'm like, and I really don't think
that the people in the store are watching me. So
thank you for you guys are always watching.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
And be careful, Chris. If she pops in again, just
make sure you go out first time and help proud.
Speaker 6 (19:51):
Okay, Absolutely, Many and PJ the podcasts Many and p
group therapy.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
We need therapy this weekly.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
There have been some songs that have just not deserved
to win their round. But anyway, that's that's therapy for
another day. Today it is all about you and you
can get in touch with us either text four four
eight seven or we've got a special page at that
stockholder in ZZ where you can tell us something that's
going on in your life. You need some help, you
need some external advice, and Uncle Maddie and auntipj are
(20:26):
gonna come to the table and get the help of
New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
So this week, MADDI, would you like to read Dilemma?
Speaker 2 (20:33):
It's a romance problem, Peach. I love a bit of romance,
so do I. I'm a romantic at heart, such a romantic.
This says, hello, you too, a bit of a situation.
I was hoping to get your thoughts on. I'm single,
but for the past twoish years I've had a crush
on this guy. We're really good friends, which obviously adds
(20:53):
a layer of complexity to the whole thing. I see
him all the time, and I swear he's always looking
at me and learning, but I still can't tell if
he likes me or not. It's gotten to the point
where I wonder whether I've imagined the whole thing or
if there really is something there. I honestly don't know
how to tell if he likes me, And even if
(21:14):
he does, is it stupid to make a move if
it might ruin our friendship?
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Make the move sister. That's what I'm going to say.
But when it comes to now, let me be a
little bit more diplomatic here. When it comes to asual
finding out if he's into you, could you go through
another mutual friend of yours and get them to do
some subtle digging. That would probably be what I would do.
But having said that, only wasn't the greatest in love
(21:43):
back in the time. I don't know if we're the
best hand out advice. But what I will say is,
so many people at the end of their life, you know,
they're more regretful of the things that they haven't done.
So if you're if you end up dying, if you
end up dying wondering what would have happened, then you'll
regret it. So I think you need to get to
(22:03):
the bottom of it.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
I have literally been in this situation. How many times,
I'm a few, but one in particular, I had a
good friend who I just had a really big crush on,
and we did have quite a flirty relationship, and I
decided to rip off the band aid one day and
I asked him. I basically said, I need to not
(22:26):
I need to know for my own sanity if there's
something here or not, and he had to let me
down gently and tell me, oh, no, it wasn't. And
part of me is grateful that I asked, and then
the other part of me is like, man, I should
have just let sleeping dogs lie. We had a fun,
little fluty relationship and there's nothing wrong with that, and
we should have I should have just let it be.
(22:47):
I should have just ruined the friendship.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
After year, it didn't.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Ruin the friendship. It didn't ruin the friendship. It made
it awkward for a while, but yeah, it was just
one of those things where I went, did I need
to do that? Or could I have just gone on
blissfully unaware?
Speaker 6 (23:01):
Betty and PJ the podcast That's Many and Pj's group therapy.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
All Right, this is where you can talk to us,
get your problems off your chest. Maybe you just need
an external opinion on something going on in your life.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
Now.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
This week we're talking romance.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
We are a bit of a situation. I was hoping
to get your thoughts on this person's written in peach.
I'm single, but for the past two iss years I've
had a crush on this guy. We're good friends, which
obviously adds a layer of complexity. I see him all
the time, and I swear he's wways looking at me
and fluting, but I still can't tell if he likes
me or not. It's gotten to the point where I
wonder if I've imagined the whole thing or if there
really is something. Then I honestly don't know how to
(23:41):
tell if he likes me. And even if he does,
is it stupid to make a move if it might
ruin our friendship?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Okay, all right, let's see what the people of New Zealand. Think.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Let's go Danny l Oh Andrew hats Hi, Danny l
What do you reckon?
Speaker 12 (23:56):
Well, I just have a little story of my own
as well. My sister in law before she was my
sister in law, she told me she had a major
crush on me and I had to let it down
before speaking with her brother, And when it came out
that I was with her brother, she turned really bitter
and really mean. So I reckon, shoot your shot, but
don't let it get between your friendship. And if they
(24:17):
so know, that's the worst thing that they can say.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
So that's true, that is true.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
How are things with you and your sister and.
Speaker 9 (24:23):
Yes, so much.
Speaker 13 (24:25):
Good I think good.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
So well, how long was the awkward patch?
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Do you reckon?
Speaker 12 (24:32):
About two years?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Okay, so I guess you've got You're saying, shoot your shot,
but you've got to be prepared that there could be
some repercussions from that. Hopefully hopefully there aren't, but you've
got to be prepared for it if if there are.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
That's some good advice, Jenny, I think so much for
calling through and let's go to fielding.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
James is joining us. James, what are your thoughts on
the situation?
Speaker 5 (24:54):
Well, a movie and okay, looks like and see what
goes from there, because that's what I did the.
Speaker 9 (25:07):
Year two thousand two, and I took my wife and
she was my favorite time, took her to the panic
room and yeah, we've been married for eighteen years. I
love it all started.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Jodie Foster. Lead you into a relationship, James, brilliant.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I love it so and you reckn like go in
with the intention of being friends and then just see.
Speaker 9 (25:32):
On the friends fing and just see what happens and
he might end up asking her out.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
True true, true, true, I like that, James, that's true.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Okay, someone else.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Someone else did say, see if they get jealous when
you say you have a date or that you have
matched with someone on Tinder, which is like that.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
But then I'm like, oh, are you starting it off
with games already?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah? Yeah, I think you're right, Peace, shoot your shot.
Your life is for living. It's too short. You've got
to You've got to put yourself out there sometimes.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
I think you've got to wag it up and if
it's worth it, then shoot your shop. But as as
we're talking about before, just be ready for the repercussions
there totally.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
And I know that, yes, maybe awkward as friends for a.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
While potentially, or you end up with the relationship you've
always dreamed of. There you go.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Look at us little matchmakers Solve problems.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Page many in the podcast. I've spoken about this before,
but I'm a godfather.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Oh you're actually really really good with kids.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
You have just this really beautiful paternal nature about you
that I've noticed when you're around kids, like they really
gravitate towards you.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
I do, I love, I love I do love kids,
and I love being a godfather. I was I was like,
I did wonder why I was specifically chosen, partly because
I don't know what I'm meant to do as a
god father and be bloody useless, like I'm so terrible.
(27:04):
And I was like, I knew as soon as I
got asked. I thought, I'm going to forget this kid's
birthday every year. I'm never see him a Christmas. I'm
going to forget to send him a Christmas present.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
If I can be a mother to time, you have
got this, you can be the godfather. Trust me, You've
got it.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Thank you. And I think I've done pretty well thus far.
And he is just the cutest kid. Every time I
see him, it just brings me so much joy. And
sometimes it's expected and sometimes it's unexpected the joy he brings.
Because his mum, who's one of my best friends, sent
me a photo and said, look what your god son
(27:41):
made a kindergarten today. I'm going to send you a
photo of what to be a snake I'm assuming made
out of like played Oh no, so it is.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Okay, that's a snake with like a base on it.
It's got like a base.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
It's got a it's got a base with yeah, what
looked like two balls at the bottom of I guess
what you can describe as a shaft within quite a
bulbous top.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
You know what.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Like I honestly think so often how much day here
teacher like day here people who work there, they must
say so much and have to keep the straightest face
when looking at kids.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Up When my when my friend sent that photo to me,
because obviously the day kid teacher had said, why don't
you take it home with you to show him, show
Mama Dad, I thought to myself, you know what you
were doing, I you know.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
What, looks like he's got no idea.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
He has the idea the day teacher, you exactly what
she was doing when she sent it home at the
end of the day.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I just love how the two the two balls at
the bottom of it like a little smiley face on it,
just to really make it a little bit more Innocent's amazing.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Anyway we get them get brilliant. We'll put that up
on our Facebook and Instagram pages that hit Strive with medi.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
And Maddy and May and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
That When I used to flat in Auckland, I lived
in like an apartment in the central city with my
friend Chloe, and we lived on the same street as
a male a gentleman's entertainmentterior shall we say.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Did you like how close we were?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
That that was top of the street. We were bottom
of the street, so it would have been interesting. It was.
There was enough distance that it didn't like impact us
day to day, but it was always interesting when you'd
walk past and you'd see someone coming out of it
and you go, you would.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Have been so nosy.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It's also what is fascinating is the times of day,
because you'd expected at nighttime or like very early hours
of the morning, you know, one am, two am kind
of thing. The guy's going there at eleven eleven am
on like a weekday and.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Like a business.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
So shouldn't you be at work anyway, we're at a
meeting at a meeting. Yes, yes, they've blocked out an
hour and the getting it done. So anyway, that was
that was years ago. And I don't I don't haven't
thought about this place for a long time, but I
just happened to drive past it today and going still
(30:45):
going strong, still going strong. Interesting. Cost of living crisis
has not affected this business. And I was driving past
and there was a poor woman walking inside with a
bucket and a mop and like cleaning products, and she
was at first kind of at first they saw her
hosing down the outside area, and then she walked in
(31:07):
with the bucket and the mop and the cleaning products. Yes,
And I thought to myself, look, this is not a
slight against clean as it at all. But if you're
gonna be if you're going to clean anything, wouldn't that
just be the worst business to clean?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Yeah, especially if it's just that one. You don't get
any variety and you're just in their day. And although
if you're a nosy type like yourself, I can see
you actually starts.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
True every every cloud, every cloud.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
But I just thought, I know what you may.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
I thought, this is a this is a job that
you must kind of sit back sometimes and go, ma'am,
surely there's better jobs out there.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Well, look, we actually asked the question before, and we're
already getting texted on four four eight seven. The worst
job scanning pots of urine into a system to test
for ovulation cycles.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
You would not believe the.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Disc sting things that enter those poles are soil lab
technician essentially just siving soil for eight hours a day.
It gets in your hair, it gets have your nose,
it stands clothes, it's horrible. So I reckon the job
that you saw is probably low level, like there would
be far worse.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Jobs, no doubt. So maybe we asked the question, Yeah,
let's open up the phone lines. Have you had a terrible,
terrible job, one that you just wouldn't wish on anyone?
Speaker 1 (32:28):
And absolutely no shock because we there, like everyone, you've
got to do it sometimes. Oh, wite hundred of hats.
What do you believe was the worst job that you
had to do? Or you can text one for eight seven.
You can keep you anon of it.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Many the podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
We want to know the worst job you've ever done?
Oh wait, one hundred the hats you can text four
for eight seven.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
I saw a cleaner going into a gentleman's club today
and I thought, oh, it's a it's rough. It's a
sticky joint to have to clean up.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Sorry, sorry, it's going to Daniel, who's joining us on.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Hi Daniel, what was your job?
Speaker 9 (33:12):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (33:13):
That's right? This sweet is what's going on? Daniel?
Speaker 1 (33:19):
No, it's going to gone. All right, let's go to Carressa.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Hi, Carressas, what job.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Did you have him?
Speaker 13 (33:30):
Try expressing anal glens from a dog. Well, we're in
a witness.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Oh my gosh, what I never quite understood that.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
What does that actually? What do you actually have to do?
What does that mean?
Speaker 13 (33:45):
Okay, this is where we say, please feed your dogs
lots of russage at the base of the tail out
by the anas. They have little glands that helps ease
the poo out. They can become impacted. So that's what
we have to do manually, go in with our fingers and.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Yeah, do you do you train for that at like
veterinary school? Do you know that that's coming at some
point in time?
Speaker 13 (34:12):
I'm not too sure we actually technically trained for a bit. Yes,
we do. And it is the worst job.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Because I beat it. Yeah, I got into this industry
than you refage.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Please should we goel here?
Speaker 3 (34:35):
All right, Daniel, we've got you.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Good. What happened? What job did you have?
Speaker 14 (34:40):
So we're there's a how do I say this on?
Even though I already sped once? So so we had
to do scaffolding and and the proof.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
On the oh and what okay, paint the picture a
little bit more so?
Speaker 3 (35:02):
What was the premise?
Speaker 14 (35:05):
So we were in a big container, A huge container, right, uh,
probably about seven hundred square meters.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
How many how many days were you on site.
Speaker 14 (35:18):
All this two weeks?
Speaker 4 (35:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Yeah, you want to like you'd want to shower pretty
you want to pretty well?
Speaker 14 (35:28):
Well, we were allowed to shower at the site, right,
wasn't wasn't building the scaffolders that once we had built
the scaffold we realized we're supposed to be we're in HESMA.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
I was going to say, did they provide you with
like proper equipment?
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Obviously not.
Speaker 14 (35:48):
No, they didn't realize. No one realized, none of us.
Two other guys are really sick and off work.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Oh oh, Daniel jeeves's that grim?
Speaker 3 (36:01):
Well, I hope you're in a bit of.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
They yes, the other guys you so much.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Recall we've got to help it aboutually coming away. That's
when I had to clean the toilets for a factory
of boat builders for three months. There were four blocks
of toilets at Holzon, a continuous rotation on nine hours
toilets and the smells will have rendo us.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I don't know what boat builders eight.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
But then die this Really I'm sorry, guys, Sorry.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
Many and PJ. The podcast, The People's.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
It's the pigs poll.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
All right.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
Every day on the show, we like to ask a
question and get your thoughts on the text of machine.
You can text to four four eight seven. The question
we're asking today is do you still write on someone's
Facebook wall when it's their birthday?
Speaker 2 (36:59):
I was a bean for a Facebook post back in
the day.
Speaker 7 (37:03):
I do.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I do photo collages. I do massive, like massive comments
for my best friends birthdays.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
So kind of you, But how stressful is that when
you're on the receiving utue birthday and you've got and
you've got like all of these people, which is lovely,
but sometimes the people that wouldn't actually really reach out
to you, right, But because Facebook's successible, you've got all
these messages and oh my god, and so then you
start liking, and then you have to like them all
and then you're like, oh, I'll write a comment back,
and you're like, oh no, actually I've runnen back to her.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
But I haven't run back to her. Now I look
like a bad person.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Just do the generic thanks everyone for all your Facebook
comments today, have a great day.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
But the blanket statement, I'm going to say, I would
actually send message probably usually Facebook messengers, where I send
a lot of my friends heavy birthday messages. But I
do still find out people's birthdays by Facebook.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
You and I are exactly the same. I use Facebook
d mind me of birthdays, and then rather than riding
on walls, I will send a private message on Facebook.
But I reckon of all of the Facebook friends I have,
I honestly think I would probably only reach out to
about five percent of them on their birthday. Really, yeah,
(38:18):
I'm ninety percent of them aren't getting bug.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
You're got to be special to get the old b
DA message from ready.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
My husband BJ's a farmer. He very much still writes
on people's birthdays on Facebook. So I don't know if
it's like an age thing, a farm versus town thing,
but I love to know. On the text machine today
for the People's Poll, do you still write on someone's
Facebook wall for their birthday?
Speaker 3 (38:44):
We'll come back after Morgan Wallen and reveal the results.
Speaker 4 (38:47):
Many in PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
That's the People's Poll, the People's Poll, everybody comes together,
it's the People's polled all right.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Today on the People's Pole, we're asking the question, do
you still write on someone's Facebook wall for their birthday
to wish them a good day?
Speaker 2 (39:07):
I just think it's Look, it's a beautiful thing if
you want to do it, but it's just so much
more personal I think to reach out like with a
text or a private message or a phone call.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
But it is an interesting concept, doesn't it. It is
very showy, like, oh, I'm a really good friend to
hear and now everyone can see like it.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
I it is personally better if you probably said and read.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Except me if the alternative. If the alternative is you
don't message them at all, then maybe it's a lovely
thing to just write on the wall.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Do you know what's the most crunch thing?
Speaker 1 (39:40):
When Facebook memories pop up and it's like ten years
ago and you are having a full fledged like novel
between your friends on each other's walls, and I'm like,
how was I revealing such intimate details? Then I'll be
talking about maybe I don't know the weekend and like help, yeah,
my god, can't wait to catch.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Up next time. It was so good having you in town.
How is Josh going? Like, I don't know, like the weirdest,
it's such a weird content.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
It was. The direct messages was a beautiful addition to Facebook.
Speaker 1 (40:11):
I would say, it really was so we have asked
the question and look, yes is in the minority.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Forty percent of you are still right on the walls.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
Sixty percent said no, so you know, there's still a
lot of people doing it, but yeah, the majority says no.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Probably make it, make it more personal, more a little
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Bit more personal, Mary, NPJ, Mady and PJ the podcast
The Heads
The Hats Drive with media and paj thanks to Chimis
weir House The Real House of Fragrances. Hi, everyone, welcome
to the podcast. Or you've got sick hubby tonight, su.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
He's always sick.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
I feel like a lot of people we've got extra
stuck after COVID. I just think immune systems have been
a bit not since I don't know, just the last
few year, weird years. You know.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
It's a fine balancing act as a husband between like
being hearing and then being like just killing over it again.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Do you cuddle a lot when he's sick or is
there like no.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Touching he hates well, I mean he hates cuddling at
the best of times, so a little when he's sick,
leave me alone.
Speaker 3 (00:46):
Do you?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Will you make him next dinner tonight, like a little
chicken soup or something I've prepped.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
I've prepped dinner, and I've said to him, you are
free to cook. Like all he's going to do is
just put the meat on and cook it and everything
us good to go. So I've said you can do that,
but if you don't fill up to it, I will
be home and I can cook it for you. When
I'm home. That's nice. Does he get like man flu?
Is he?
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (01:12):
Honestly, I think I've told you this before.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's like you shoe shick and he thinks I put
it on when I'm sick. But when he's like when
he gets the same bug as me, he's like, no, no,
you didn't have the same one as me.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
It was different. This is so much worse.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
And I'm like, no, although he's actually been more resilient lately,
and I think that's because I always like force feed
him all these good vitamins and stuff that he ne histam.
So he's like he's quite good now, Ryan.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
Ryan feels very sorry for himself and he's yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
Do you get that, like, is the man blow an
actual thing? Or do you think some guys who are
like maybe this is that, who are usually like much
more masculine.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
This is the chance for your guard to come down.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
I reckon it's there, whereas.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You don't need to because you're always you're it.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
Is always yeah exactly, So it just is so like
neutral for me.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, like, yeah, I'm sick, well what about it?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
But yeah, no, I might take take him home a
little treat tonight.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
The thing is they always want to treat like an
ice cream or something like that.
Speaker 3 (02:20):
There's the worst thing you've got a cold.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Because it's like not good on the MUK thing though,
where it's like sometimes you just don't just want to
be cheap.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Absolutely, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
Okay, So The Rokie you know how I told you
we resist for that is the TV show about corps
in l A.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:38):
So last night I'm not getting really into it now
and we're watching this episode and it's just so dramatic
and then it ends and we're like, oh my god,
bring on, like the next episode. It stops at the
end of season three and This Sexual seven. This Sexual
seven seasons and total, but Netflix and New Zealand only
has three. And I was so like so deflated. Oh
(03:03):
my god, Actually what we.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Watched invastating really shit. I hate it.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
And so now I'm like, I wonder if any other
platforms in New Zealand preview it, because it doesn't make
sense to me.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
That they've only got three seasons.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
If you google, We're to watch The Rookie In z
there's a website called flicks dot cot INZI that often.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
Has Okay, so there's sex seasons. We've watched three. Okay,
We're sorry, guys. This is really reventing for anyone that's
not keen on the Rookie.
Speaker 5 (03:35):
You know that.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
And I'm going to tell you about what I'm watching
at the moment, which is The Real Housewives of Salt
Lake City, and it's so good. Can I just tell
you something that's happening. This is I'm well behind the april,
Like this is a few seasons old. One of the
housewives on this season gets arrested in the middle of
(03:58):
filming and and they're going on like a girl's trip
to go skiing, and they're like, it's like they're filming,
but it's not. The cameras are just kind of rolling,
but it's not really.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
She feels like real reality TV.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Real reality TV, because it's not even a part. You
would never have seen this part of the show normally
because it's so right boring. It's kind it's kind of
them just getting ready to get in the van to
drive to the mountain to go skiing. So it's like, yeah,
it's nothing really happening. And then all of a sudden,
one of their housewives is like gets a call and
(04:35):
she goes, I have to go. I have to go,
And she gets in a car and drives off and
then the like SWAT team arrive to without the rest
of the housewives are to arrest her. What it's wild?

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Go and joy the podcast enjoyed the podcast coming up.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
After yesterday's revelation that I hadn't paid for petrol late
June and two rangy, someone else got in touch with
the show to reveal another incredibly embarrassing moment they witnessed
me though several years back at the petrol.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Station, mortifying. We also talked about when did you get
sucked in by the sales pitch? Yes, here, I've spent
fifty dollars on something stupid, stupid, and.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
We talk the worst jobs you've ever done. All of
that and more in the podcast enjoy by many.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
In the podcast's Deep into the Olympics page, we are
a few days after the opening ceremony, and boy, it's
just it's just event after event after event.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
Yeah, what's your favorite?
Speaker 2 (06:51):
Well, my husband is big into horse riding, so we've
been watching the horses. I love Olympics because I mean
I love gymnasts because it's just so impressive to watch.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Yeah, we're watching to synchronize the other a synchronized swimming
the other day and it's just honestly, like the amount
of hours that must go into that training, it's so impressive.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Here's what I will say. The Olympics and this happens
I reckon every year is the time of the one
of those times where delusion is at its most high.
And what way my husband has decided that he reckons
he could get to lay twenty eight to compete in
(07:37):
the modern pen tathlon?
Speaker 3 (07:40):
What is that though?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
What are you doing?
Speaker 3 (07:42):
The modern pen tathlon?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's such an interesting event. It's such an interesting event.
It consists of fencing, freestyle, swimming, equestrians, show jumping, pistol shooting,
and cross country running.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
That is such a niche commination of sports.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
That's the thing. Ryan says, I'm never I'm not Lewis
clear Ber like, I'm never gonna swim two hundred meters
in the pool, and I'm and I wouldn't. I'm not
that delusional. And he's like, I'm not Nick Willis. So
I'm never gonna run I'm never gonna run one of
them really fast or anything like that.
Speaker 1 (08:19):
But combine them all together altogether, you just need to
you just need to have a couple of good rounds.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
And because he's grown up on horses and has competed it,
has actually competed at quite a high level with horses. Yeah,
he says, the show jumping is always where they fall over,
because these are like runners or swimmers who then have
to just all of a sudden randomly learned to ride
a horse. Whereas He's like, well that.
Speaker 3 (08:43):
I'm actually pretty strong in the arena.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
I'm pretty strong with that. So now I'm just going
to build up my fitness with swimming and running easy.
He needs to do that.
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Still needs to be pretty good though, swimming and running right,
like you need to be just a bit higher than
your average blow Agreed.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Agreed, but he reckons four years is enough time to
get him to LA And I love the delusion, so
I was I wanted to open up the text machine
four four eight seven. Have you had this delusional moment
like have you been watching the Olympics thing thinking I
could do that?
Speaker 3 (09:15):
And if so, I should quit my job. Maybe I
could do it in four years.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
I want to know what sport you've got the delusion
with text us for four eight seven.
Speaker 6 (09:25):
Maddy and Median PJ the podcasts.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
Have you ever been sucked into a sales pitch. That
is the question we're asking on the show this afternoon
after an incident that went down over the weekend for
one of our well our only well actual we got
two producers, but for our producer Sarah, who decided to
go to a certain food show and got sucked into
a little product.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
Sarah joins us. Now, Hi, Sarah, Hi.
Speaker 7 (09:53):
I feel like I'm admitting, like I'm at therapy, like
admitting my products.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
Hey chucked the shame away a judgment free zone.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
On the couch.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
What happened?
Speaker 7 (10:05):
Okay, So I was at a food show and obviously
I'm not someone to to kind of like buy like
homie products or anything like that. I'm there for the chocolate,
I'm there for the cought. I'm not gonna buy like
oil or anything.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
No, no, no, no, nothing you want. You're on the
verge of gen Z. You're definitely the youthful one of
the team.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Thank you. You're there for the free samples exactly.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
So I'm going around getting all the free samples and
then I stumble upon like a cloth stand, and you know,
I would just walk past, but he had a little
microphone attached to it.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
Well, like a madonna micra to his ear.
Speaker 7 (10:41):
Yes, and he's like, come on over, girls, come on over,
And I was like all right. He proceeds to do
a full on five minute presentation.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, wiping up spills.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
He's spilling color on this little thing of carpet that
he has with this amazing cloth. And I was transfixed.
I was I on the prize. I was like, I
need this cloth.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Because this was my This is going to be my question.
Were you lured in because you felt bad for the
guy or were you genuinely interested to see the product?
Speaker 3 (11:11):
Well, the person I.
Speaker 7 (11:11):
Was with was like, oh, these are actually quite good cloths,
like these are really good. I used to use them,
and I was like, okay. Plus he I felt bad
because no one was at the stand and everyone was
at the donut.
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Oh they's talking.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
A few of the only ones there with the pat
Jenny's got the microphone because you have to make eye
contact the whole tether.
Speaker 2 (11:26):
That's a tough stand to have as well. The one
needs to the donut.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
We did start crowd.
Speaker 7 (11:31):
I will say, we brought over tons of people. I
was getting the clap and go and go whoo wow.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
It really does soak up the cold. Now, oh my god.
Speaker 7 (11:39):
So then he finishes and he goes, now, normally this is,
you know, fifty dollars, but today only I will give
you four rows rolls plus another four rolls four fifty bucks.
And I whipped out my card before my partner could
say anything, and I shoved it and I swiped it
in the and I was so excited. I was like, yes,
two for the price of one. And then we walked
(12:01):
away and I was like, wait a minute, I.
Speaker 3 (12:04):
Don't even need a cloth.
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Cloth. You weren't even going to buy any food at
the food shows. At the food fifty dollars.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Someone stopped me and want to you really want to
get your money's worth and use that?
Speaker 3 (12:20):
Do you guys want to to take home tonight?
Speaker 1 (12:23):
So I would actually love a cloth like I would,
I'd buy that, and I'd actually think that's a deal
with Can I just.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
Say I'm disappointed in you here because I would expect
this kind of behavior from PJ. I expected more from you.
Speaker 7 (12:37):
I'll do it in next time.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Well, I've talked about this before. We got sucked into
the bow flicks. What do you call it? Like cross trainer?
My husband and I we were in the hotel on
like a Sunday morning, feeling really sorry for ourselves, and
the infomercial came on and I always said I would
never get sucked in one of those emotionals, and it
was like want to look better, want to feel good,
want to do and we're like yes, yes, yes, So
(13:00):
we called up and you like, honestly, for months on
end we were paying off this bloody exercisement.
Speaker 2 (13:06):
You told me recently that you were going to sell it.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
Yeah, no, it's actually come back. I might say.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
Many in the podcast, We want to know when you
got sucked in by the sales Patchy absolutely didn't need
the product.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
But you got sucked in. Producer Seria spent fifty dollars
to buy some cloths at her food showing that my
house is going to be clean, isn't it sure? But
was it already clean with the cloth.
Speaker 6 (13:33):
That you had?
Speaker 1 (13:34):
Maybe to be fair, I've been looking out the class
because you told me the brand.
Speaker 3 (13:39):
I'm going to say the shem oy is that it.
She looks bloody girl. They meant to last for ages.
Speaker 7 (13:44):
And he was showing me how like when you ring
about they stay dry, no drips.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
I look quite absorbed. I'll get me there.
Speaker 2 (13:52):
If I see your package come into the studio and
you have bloody spent fifty dollars in his cloth, I
swear to God.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
Veronica's joining us on the fine Rocky.
Speaker 1 (14:02):
You actually got sucked into the same thing I did, Ronica,
what happened?
Speaker 8 (14:09):
Okay, So I did I take my daughter? I think
I might have taken my daughter. So we went to
the food show.
Speaker 9 (14:16):
It was at the food show.
Speaker 8 (14:18):
We went to the foot This is my daughter Mary.
We went to the food Show. We went there for
the for the crackers, for the salamis, for the delicious.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
The things you normally go to the food show for exactly.
Speaker 8 (14:33):
Anyway, we're walking along this young guy and he's got
this microphone on and he's guys, this German cough friend.
And he's like, look, I'm still in your whole glass
of coke and it's going to suck up a whole
glass of coke and look just so it was completely dry,
and and he's just like and I'm hypnotized, and just
(14:53):
watching him. I'm like, oh my god, I need this
for my yeah, just I just need this right now.
So anyway, okay, so today it's fifty bucks that I'm
going here. Last year's one that's different color for free,
so you get two for the press of one. Honestly,
I just I couldn't have taken out of a credit
card fast enough.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
I need to know. I need to know, Veronica, was
it a good one? Was it worth it? Yeah?
Speaker 8 (15:20):
Well, I gave I gave one role to my mom.
And she actually has got one of those showers that's
a room, so she uses hers on the shower floor.
Speaker 9 (15:30):
She really helpful.
Speaker 2 (15:32):
Okay, I use.
Speaker 8 (15:34):
It for the cats clean up.
Speaker 2 (15:37):
Okay, all right, she's she's drunk. They this is not you.
You are not coming on this show to try you
if you bought the friend she's brought the franchise.
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Now Tina's joining us. Tina did the herts. What did
you get sucked into by the sales?
Speaker 8 (15:54):
Pat?
Speaker 10 (15:55):
Well, I actually want to a photo shot for me
and myner, And so he went along and did the
photo shoot, and she printed it out and it was
only like a tiny, little regular size photo and she
convinced me to buy like a huge canvas a bust
(16:16):
together a black and white, a beautiful one for like
two and a half grand.
Speaker 3 (16:23):
Grand.
Speaker 10 (16:25):
Yeah, and my partner was horrified, and he didn't talk
to me, went out and had cigarette for a while. Well,
I signed the paperwork and God all signed up. So yeah,
but I still have it and we love it, and yeah,
but it's a reminder every.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
Time every time he looks at it, does your husband
go that bloody cost us thousand dollars because I love it?
Speaker 1 (16:53):
ANDJ and PJ the podcast you may have caught on
the show yes day me opening up about some mail
that I received over the weekend, which to this point
in my life, is the most humiliating thing I have
actually received.
Speaker 3 (17:09):
Which is a massive call.
Speaker 2 (17:10):
Huge call, because you are you were constantly embarrassing yourself.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
I'm walking chaos, like literally, I think I noticed sitcom.
So basically, if you missed at it, turns out the
letter informed me that at the end of June, I
went to a sid And petrol station and I put
the petrol in my car and I drove off without paying.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
For said petrol.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
So I fixed that up, quickly entered all my details
in online.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
I was a little weary.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
I thought, all, this is a scam, but then I
realized on the letter there was a blatant photo.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
Of me inside my car at the gas station.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
So anyway, it was a learning always make sure you
pay for your petrol.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Now, we thought that that was one and done. You know,
we told the story, we had a laugh, and a
few people a message and say, oh my gosh, I've
done the same thing PJ. Blah blah blah blah blah.
We thought that was it for petrol station chat for
a while. No no, no, no, no, into someone in our
direct messages on Instagram to say, this is not the
(18:08):
first and only mortifying experience you've had at the petrol station.
I'd like to welcome to the show. Chris Hi, Chris good,
How are you good? I read your message and I
cackled last night. Do you want to tell the people
what happened when PJ visited the petrol station.
Speaker 11 (18:30):
So she come in to fill up, got out of
a car, Then she REases on the wrong side, so
she drives right round to the other side, gets back out,
the still realizes she's on the wrong side. I think
that happened about three times.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
So she just keep driving from Bowser to bowser, but
every time she did it, she'd end up on the
wrong side. Yep.
Speaker 11 (18:52):
Pretty much.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
Did someone have to go and rescue her? In the end.
Speaker 11 (18:56):
Decided after watching the third time, I should probably go.
Speaker 1 (19:01):
Chris, can I ask when this has happened? I want
to work out it for the lines with when I
was last pregnant, because I can surely blame it on that.
Speaker 11 (19:08):
No, that was three years, three or four years ago.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
No? Now, is this a usual occurrence, Chris? Or is
PJ a very unique individual in this in this instance.
Speaker 11 (19:24):
Normally after the second time?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Yeah, yeah, you'd think so.
Speaker 1 (19:28):
Literally, I have had a few moments where I do
remember that happening, and I don't know, it's just an
absolute mirror, and I'm like, and I really don't think
that the people in the store are watching me. So
thank you for you guys are always watching.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
And be careful, Chris. If she pops in again, just
make sure you go out first time and help proud.
Speaker 6 (19:51):
Okay, Absolutely, Many and PJ the podcasts Many and p
group therapy.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
We need therapy this weekly.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
There have been some songs that have just not deserved
to win their round. But anyway, that's that's therapy for
another day. Today it is all about you and you
can get in touch with us either text four four
eight seven or we've got a special page at that
stockholder in ZZ where you can tell us something that's
going on in your life. You need some help, you
need some external advice, and Uncle Maddie and auntipj are
(20:26):
gonna come to the table and get the help of
New Zealand.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
So this week, MADDI, would you like to read Dilemma?
Speaker 2 (20:33):
It's a romance problem, Peach. I love a bit of romance,
so do I. I'm a romantic at heart, such a romantic.
This says, hello, you too, a bit of a situation.
I was hoping to get your thoughts on. I'm single,
but for the past twoish years I've had a crush
on this guy. We're really good friends, which obviously adds
(20:53):
a layer of complexity to the whole thing. I see
him all the time, and I swear he's always looking
at me and learning, but I still can't tell if
he likes me or not. It's gotten to the point
where I wonder whether I've imagined the whole thing or
if there really is something there. I honestly don't know
how to tell if he likes me, And even if
(21:14):
he does, is it stupid to make a move if
it might ruin our friendship?
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Make the move sister. That's what I'm going to say.
But when it comes to now, let me be a
little bit more diplomatic here. When it comes to asual
finding out if he's into you, could you go through
another mutual friend of yours and get them to do
some subtle digging. That would probably be what I would do.
But having said that, only wasn't the greatest in love
(21:43):
back in the time. I don't know if we're the
best hand out advice. But what I will say is,
so many people at the end of their life, you know,
they're more regretful of the things that they haven't done.
So if you're if you end up dying, if you
end up dying wondering what would have happened, then you'll
regret it. So I think you need to get to
(22:03):
the bottom of it.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
I have literally been in this situation. How many times,
I'm a few, but one in particular, I had a
good friend who I just had a really big crush on,
and we did have quite a flirty relationship, and I
decided to rip off the band aid one day and
I asked him. I basically said, I need to not
(22:26):
I need to know for my own sanity if there's
something here or not, and he had to let me
down gently and tell me, oh, no, it wasn't. And
part of me is grateful that I asked, and then
the other part of me is like, man, I should
have just let sleeping dogs lie. We had a fun,
little fluty relationship and there's nothing wrong with that, and
we should have I should have just let it be.
(22:47):
I should have just ruined the friendship.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
After year, it didn't.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
Ruin the friendship. It didn't ruin the friendship. It made
it awkward for a while, but yeah, it was just
one of those things where I went, did I need
to do that? Or could I have just gone on
blissfully unaware?
Speaker 6 (23:01):
Betty and PJ the podcast That's Many and Pj's group therapy.
Speaker 1 (23:07):
All Right, this is where you can talk to us,
get your problems off your chest. Maybe you just need
an external opinion on something going on in your life.
Speaker 6 (23:16):
Now.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
This week we're talking romance.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
We are a bit of a situation. I was hoping
to get your thoughts on this person's written in peach.
I'm single, but for the past two iss years I've
had a crush on this guy. We're good friends, which
obviously adds a layer of complexity. I see him all
the time, and I swear he's wways looking at me
and fluting, but I still can't tell if he likes
me or not. It's gotten to the point where I
wonder if I've imagined the whole thing or if there
really is something. Then I honestly don't know how to
(23:41):
tell if he likes me. And even if he does,
is it stupid to make a move if it might
ruin our friendship?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Okay, all right, let's see what the people of New Zealand. Think.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
Let's go Danny l Oh Andrew hats Hi, Danny l
What do you reckon?
Speaker 12 (23:56):
Well, I just have a little story of my own
as well. My sister in law before she was my
sister in law, she told me she had a major
crush on me and I had to let it down
before speaking with her brother, And when it came out
that I was with her brother, she turned really bitter
and really mean. So I reckon, shoot your shot, but
don't let it get between your friendship. And if they
(24:17):
so know, that's the worst thing that they can say.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
So that's true, that is true.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
How are things with you and your sister and.
Speaker 9 (24:23):
Yes, so much.
Speaker 13 (24:25):
Good I think good.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
So well, how long was the awkward patch?
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Do you reckon?
Speaker 12 (24:32):
About two years?
Speaker 2 (24:33):
Okay, so I guess you've got You're saying, shoot your shot,
but you've got to be prepared that there could be
some repercussions from that. Hopefully hopefully there aren't, but you've
got to be prepared for it if if there are.
Speaker 1 (24:47):
That's some good advice, Jenny, I think so much for
calling through and let's go to fielding.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
James is joining us. James, what are your thoughts on
the situation?
Speaker 5 (24:54):
Well, a movie and okay, looks like and see what
goes from there, because that's what I did the.
Speaker 9 (25:07):
Year two thousand two, and I took my wife and
she was my favorite time, took her to the panic
room and yeah, we've been married for eighteen years. I
love it all started.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Jodie Foster. Lead you into a relationship, James, brilliant.
Speaker 1 (25:25):
I love it so and you reckn like go in
with the intention of being friends and then just see.
Speaker 9 (25:32):
On the friends fing and just see what happens and
he might end up asking her out.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
True true, true, true, I like that, James, that's true.
Speaker 3 (25:41):
Okay, someone else.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
Someone else did say, see if they get jealous when
you say you have a date or that you have
matched with someone on Tinder, which is like that.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
But then I'm like, oh, are you starting it off
with games already?
Speaker 2 (25:52):
Yeah? Yeah, I think you're right, Peace, shoot your shot.
Your life is for living. It's too short. You've got
to You've got to put yourself out there sometimes.
Speaker 1 (26:02):
I think you've got to wag it up and if
it's worth it, then shoot your shop. But as as
we're talking about before, just be ready for the repercussions
there totally.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
And I know that, yes, maybe awkward as friends for a.
Speaker 2 (26:13):
While potentially, or you end up with the relationship you've
always dreamed of. There you go.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Look at us little matchmakers Solve problems.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Page many in the podcast. I've spoken about this before,
but I'm a godfather.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Oh you're actually really really good with kids.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
You have just this really beautiful paternal nature about you
that I've noticed when you're around kids, like they really
gravitate towards you.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
I do, I love, I love I do love kids,
and I love being a godfather. I was I was like,
I did wonder why I was specifically chosen, partly because
I don't know what I'm meant to do as a
god father and be bloody useless, like I'm so terrible.
(27:04):
And I was like, I knew as soon as I
got asked. I thought, I'm going to forget this kid's
birthday every year. I'm never see him a Christmas. I'm
going to forget to send him a Christmas present.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
If I can be a mother to time, you have
got this, you can be the godfather. Trust me, You've
got it.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Thank you. And I think I've done pretty well thus far.
And he is just the cutest kid. Every time I
see him, it just brings me so much joy. And
sometimes it's expected and sometimes it's unexpected the joy he brings.
Because his mum, who's one of my best friends, sent
me a photo and said, look what your god son
(27:41):
made a kindergarten today. I'm going to send you a
photo of what to be a snake I'm assuming made
out of like played Oh no, so it is.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
Okay, that's a snake with like a base on it.
It's got like a base.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
It's got a it's got a base with yeah, what
looked like two balls at the bottom of I guess
what you can describe as a shaft within quite a
bulbous top.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
You know what.
Speaker 1 (28:23):
Like I honestly think so often how much day here
teacher like day here people who work there, they must
say so much and have to keep the straightest face
when looking at kids.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Up When my when my friend sent that photo to me,
because obviously the day kid teacher had said, why don't
you take it home with you to show him, show
Mama Dad, I thought to myself, you know what you
were doing, I you know.
Speaker 3 (28:51):
What, looks like he's got no idea.
Speaker 2 (28:56):
He has the idea the day teacher, you exactly what
she was doing when she sent it home at the
end of the day.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
I just love how the two the two balls at
the bottom of it like a little smiley face on it,
just to really make it a little bit more Innocent's amazing.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
Anyway we get them get brilliant. We'll put that up
on our Facebook and Instagram pages that hit Strive with medi.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
And Maddy and May and PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:31):
That When I used to flat in Auckland, I lived
in like an apartment in the central city with my
friend Chloe, and we lived on the same street as
a male a gentleman's entertainmentterior shall we say.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Did you like how close we were?
Speaker 2 (29:51):
That that was top of the street. We were bottom
of the street, so it would have been interesting. It was.
There was enough distance that it didn't like impact us
day to day, but it was always interesting when you'd
walk past and you'd see someone coming out of it
and you go, you would.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
Have been so nosy.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
It's also what is fascinating is the times of day,
because you'd expected at nighttime or like very early hours
of the morning, you know, one am, two am kind
of thing. The guy's going there at eleven eleven am
on like a weekday and.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
Like a business.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
So shouldn't you be at work anyway, we're at a
meeting at a meeting. Yes, yes, they've blocked out an
hour and the getting it done. So anyway, that was
that was years ago. And I don't I don't haven't
thought about this place for a long time, but I
just happened to drive past it today and going still
(30:45):
going strong, still going strong. Interesting. Cost of living crisis
has not affected this business. And I was driving past
and there was a poor woman walking inside with a
bucket and a mop and like cleaning products, and she
was at first kind of at first they saw her
hosing down the outside area, and then she walked in
(31:07):
with the bucket and the mop and the cleaning products. Yes,
And I thought to myself, look, this is not a
slight against clean as it at all. But if you're
gonna be if you're going to clean anything, wouldn't that
just be the worst business to clean?
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Yeah, especially if it's just that one. You don't get
any variety and you're just in their day. And although
if you're a nosy type like yourself, I can see
you actually starts.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
True every every cloud, every cloud.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
But I just thought, I know what you may.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
I thought, this is a this is a job that
you must kind of sit back sometimes and go, ma'am,
surely there's better jobs out there.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Well, look, we actually asked the question before, and we're
already getting texted on four four eight seven. The worst
job scanning pots of urine into a system to test
for ovulation cycles.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
You would not believe the.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
Disc sting things that enter those poles are soil lab
technician essentially just siving soil for eight hours a day.
It gets in your hair, it gets have your nose,
it stands clothes, it's horrible. So I reckon the job
that you saw is probably low level, like there would
be far worse.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Jobs, no doubt. So maybe we asked the question, Yeah,
let's open up the phone lines. Have you had a terrible,
terrible job, one that you just wouldn't wish on anyone?
Speaker 1 (32:28):
And absolutely no shock because we there, like everyone, you've
got to do it sometimes. Oh, wite hundred of hats.
What do you believe was the worst job that you
had to do? Or you can text one for eight seven.
You can keep you anon of it.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
Many the podcast.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
We want to know the worst job you've ever done?
Oh wait, one hundred the hats you can text four
for eight seven.
Speaker 2 (32:50):
I saw a cleaner going into a gentleman's club today
and I thought, oh, it's a it's rough. It's a
sticky joint to have to clean up.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Sorry, sorry, it's going to Daniel, who's joining us on.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
Hi Daniel, what was your job?
Speaker 9 (33:12):
Sorry?
Speaker 2 (33:13):
That's right? This sweet is what's going on? Daniel?
Speaker 1 (33:19):
No, it's going to gone. All right, let's go to Carressa.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Hi, Carressas, what job.
Speaker 2 (33:27):
Did you have him?
Speaker 13 (33:30):
Try expressing anal glens from a dog. Well, we're in
a witness.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Oh my gosh, what I never quite understood that.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
What does that actually? What do you actually have to do?
What does that mean?
Speaker 13 (33:45):
Okay, this is where we say, please feed your dogs
lots of russage at the base of the tail out
by the anas. They have little glands that helps ease
the poo out. They can become impacted. So that's what
we have to do manually, go in with our fingers and.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Yeah, do you do you train for that at like
veterinary school? Do you know that that's coming at some
point in time?
Speaker 13 (34:12):
I'm not too sure we actually technically trained for a bit. Yes,
we do. And it is the worst job.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
Because I beat it. Yeah, I got into this industry
than you refage.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Please should we goel here?
Speaker 3 (34:35):
All right, Daniel, we've got you.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Good. What happened? What job did you have?
Speaker 14 (34:40):
So we're there's a how do I say this on?
Even though I already sped once? So so we had
to do scaffolding and and the proof.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
On the oh and what okay, paint the picture a
little bit more so?
Speaker 3 (35:02):
What was the premise?
Speaker 14 (35:05):
So we were in a big container, A huge container, right, uh,
probably about seven hundred square meters.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
How many how many days were you on site.
Speaker 14 (35:18):
All this two weeks?
Speaker 4 (35:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (35:22):
Yeah, you want to like you'd want to shower pretty
you want to pretty well?
Speaker 14 (35:28):
Well, we were allowed to shower at the site, right,
wasn't wasn't building the scaffolders that once we had built
the scaffold we realized we're supposed to be we're in HESMA.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
I was going to say, did they provide you with
like proper equipment?
Speaker 2 (35:46):
Obviously not.
Speaker 14 (35:48):
No, they didn't realize. No one realized, none of us.
Two other guys are really sick and off work.
Speaker 1 (35:56):
Oh oh, Daniel jeeves's that grim?
Speaker 3 (36:01):
Well, I hope you're in a bit of.
Speaker 4 (36:05):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
They yes, the other guys you so much.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Recall we've got to help it aboutually coming away. That's
when I had to clean the toilets for a factory
of boat builders for three months. There were four blocks
of toilets at Holzon, a continuous rotation on nine hours
toilets and the smells will have rendo us.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
I don't know what boat builders eight.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
But then die this Really I'm sorry, guys, Sorry.
Speaker 4 (36:34):
Many and PJ. The podcast, The People's.
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Poll, the People's Pole, everybody comes together.
Speaker 4 (36:42):
It's the pigs poll.
Speaker 3 (36:44):
All right.
Speaker 1 (36:45):
Every day on the show, we like to ask a
question and get your thoughts on the text of machine.
You can text to four four eight seven. The question
we're asking today is do you still write on someone's
Facebook wall when it's their birthday?
Speaker 2 (36:59):
I was a bean for a Facebook post back in
the day.
Speaker 7 (37:03):
I do.
Speaker 2 (37:04):
I do photo collages. I do massive, like massive comments
for my best friends birthdays.
Speaker 1 (37:13):
So kind of you, But how stressful is that when
you're on the receiving utue birthday and you've got and
you've got like all of these people, which is lovely,
but sometimes the people that wouldn't actually really reach out
to you, right, But because Facebook's successible, you've got all
these messages and oh my god, and so then you
start liking, and then you have to like them all
and then you're like, oh, I'll write a comment back,
and you're like, oh no, actually I've runnen back to her.
Speaker 3 (37:33):
But I haven't run back to her. Now I look
like a bad person.
Speaker 2 (37:35):
Just do the generic thanks everyone for all your Facebook
comments today, have a great day.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
But the blanket statement, I'm going to say, I would
actually send message probably usually Facebook messengers, where I send
a lot of my friends heavy birthday messages. But I
do still find out people's birthdays by Facebook.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
You and I are exactly the same. I use Facebook
d mind me of birthdays, and then rather than riding
on walls, I will send a private message on Facebook.
But I reckon of all of the Facebook friends I have,
I honestly think I would probably only reach out to
about five percent of them on their birthday. Really, yeah,
(38:18):
I'm ninety percent of them aren't getting bug.
Speaker 3 (38:25):
You're got to be special to get the old b
DA message from ready.
Speaker 1 (38:28):
My husband BJ's a farmer. He very much still writes
on people's birthdays on Facebook. So I don't know if
it's like an age thing, a farm versus town thing,
but I love to know. On the text machine today
for the People's Poll, do you still write on someone's
Facebook wall for their birthday?
Speaker 3 (38:44):
We'll come back after Morgan Wallen and reveal the results.
Speaker 4 (38:47):
Many in PJ the podcast.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
That's the People's Poll, the People's Poll, everybody comes together,
it's the People's polled all right.
Speaker 1 (38:58):
Today on the People's Pole, we're asking the question, do
you still write on someone's Facebook wall for their birthday
to wish them a good day?
Speaker 2 (39:07):
I just think it's Look, it's a beautiful thing if
you want to do it, but it's just so much
more personal I think to reach out like with a
text or a private message or a phone call.
Speaker 1 (39:20):
But it is an interesting concept, doesn't it. It is
very showy, like, oh, I'm a really good friend to
hear and now everyone can see like it.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
I it is personally better if you probably said and read.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
Except me if the alternative. If the alternative is you
don't message them at all, then maybe it's a lovely
thing to just write on the wall.
Speaker 3 (39:38):
Do you know what's the most crunch thing?
Speaker 1 (39:40):
When Facebook memories pop up and it's like ten years
ago and you are having a full fledged like novel
between your friends on each other's walls, and I'm like,
how was I revealing such intimate details? Then I'll be
talking about maybe I don't know the weekend and like help, yeah,
my god, can't wait to catch.
Speaker 3 (39:59):
Up next time. It was so good having you in town.
How is Josh going? Like, I don't know, like the weirdest,
it's such a weird content.
Speaker 2 (40:07):
It was. The direct messages was a beautiful addition to Facebook.
Speaker 1 (40:11):
I would say, it really was so we have asked
the question and look, yes is in the minority.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Forty percent of you are still right on the walls.
Speaker 1 (40:19):
Sixty percent said no, so you know, there's still a
lot of people doing it, but yeah, the majority says no.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Probably make it, make it more personal, more a little
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Bit more personal, Mary, NPJ, Mady and PJ the podcast
